Those planning to attend the conference may be interested to know that the Gulf Research Centre's branch at Cambridge (GRC-C) will be holding a Gulf Research Meeting in Cambridge, 7-10 July 2010. The two conferences have linked their activities on the basis of shared interests in the Gulf. The Cambridge conference follows immediately after the Exeter one, enabling participants to travel on to Cambridge in time for that meeting.
Those attending the 2010 Exeter Gulf Studies Conference may also wish to note the EXCEPS Conference (Exeter Centre for Ethnopolitical Studies) that immediately precedes it, 27-30 June. |
